Answer:

Bigger

Step-by-step explanation:

-3.8 is bigger because negative numbers closer to 0 are actually bigger than negative numbers farther away.

If $-4\frac{1}{2}$ is broken down into simpler form it becomes -9/2 which reduces to -4.5 in decimal form. -4.5 is farther away from 0 on a number line thus it is smaller. Thus -3.8 > -4.5

Help with Geometry Homework Please?

Harrizon [31]

The answer for the first slot is Alternate Interior Angles Theorem
Angle B and angle G are inside the "train tracks" formed by AB and GH. They are on opposite sides of the transversal line BG.

Along a similar line of reasoning, the answer for the second slot is Alternate Exterior Angles Theorem
The two parallel lines in question are AC and FH. The transversal line is FC. Angles ACB and HFG are on the exterior of the "train tracks" formed by the parallel lines.

A sweet factory produces 5 different chocolate bars. the different flavors are always produced in the same proportions, for ever

IRISSAK [1]

a. There are 933 chocolate bars

b. There are 1200 chocolate bars

c. There are 1580 chocolate bars

<h3>How to calculate the number of chocolate bars</h3>

Since there are 5 different flavors,

let

x = orange flavored bars,
y = coconut flavored bars,
z = coffee flavored bars,
a = strawberry flavored bars and
b = honeycomb flavored bars and
X = total number of bars

Since the different flavors are always produced in the same proportions, for every 4 coconut flavored bars 5 honeycomb 6 orange 1 coffee and 4 strawberry

So, the ratio of their proportions are x:y:z:a:b = 6:4:2:1:5

So, the total ratio is T = 6 + 4 + 1 + 4 + 5 = 20

<h3>a. What is the total number of chocolate bars if there are 280 orange flavored bars?</h3>

Since we have 6 orange flavored bars, the ratio of orange flavored bars to total is 6/20

So, the amount of orange flavored bars is x = 6/20 × X

Making X subject of the formula, we have

X = 20x/6

So, if there are 280 orange bars, there will be

X = 20x/6

X = 20 × 280/6

X = 5600/6

X = 933.33

X ≅ 933 chocolate bars

So, there are 933 chocolate bars

<h3>b. What is the total number of chocolate bars if there are 960 coconut flavored bars?</h3>

Since we have 4 coconut flavored bars, the ratio of coconut flavored bars to total is 4/20

So, the amount of coconut flavored bars is y = 4/20 × X

Making X subject of the formula, we have

X = 20y/4

So, if there are 960 coconut flavored bars, there will be

X = 20y/6

X = 20 × 960/4

X = 5 × 240

X = 1200 chocolate bars

So, there are 1200 chocolate bars

<h3>c. What is the total number of chocolate bars if there are 79 coffee flavored bars?</h3>

Since we have 1 coffee flavored bars, the ratio of coffee flavored bars to total is 1/20

So, the amount of coconut flavored bars is z = 1/20 × X

Making X subject of the formula, we have

X = 20z

So, if there are 79 coffee flavored bars, there will be

X = 20z

X = 20 × 79

X = 1580 chocolate bars

So, there are 1580 chocolate bars
